Traditionally, most lens and filter effects are interposed at the time of the shot. However, Lens Effects extends the functionality beyond the camera, providing the convenience and flexibility to add any number of filter, lens, hood and specialty-camera adjustments after the shot. This type of control helps simplify the shooting process by simulating the abilities of your camera equipment inside of Photoshop. Lens Effects offers a way to explore the many benefits that traditional lenses and filters offer – in just a click.
